Construction to widen Highway 67 to six lanes between Main Street and Vandenberg Boulevard in Jacksonville requires temporary detours of John Hardin Drive and Ramada Street.

Weather permitting, crews will close Ramada Street at its connection with TP White Drive Friday, July 28 through Wednesday, August 2. Crews will also close John Hardin Drive at its connection with John Harden Drive Monday, July 31 through Friday, August 4. This will allow construction crews to perform pavement removal and reconstruction. Detours will be signed.

  • To access Ramada Street, traffic can follow detour signs from TP White Drive to James Street and Vine Street.
  • To access TP White Drive from Ramada, traffic can follow Vine Street to Main Street
  • To access John Hardin Drive, traffic can take adjacent road Braden Street.

Traffic will be controlled with message boards, traffic drums, and detour signs. The public is advised to be cautious when traveling in the work zone and watch for slower traffic speeds. Areas adjacent to the Interstate may experience noise impacts during nighttime hours.
